I've managed to melt 2 of my hubs! The bearing had ceased and obviously built up a lot of heat. I've managed to source some stainless steel bearings and all i need now is 2 new hubs. I ride a Flexifoil Airdeck btw. Anyone know where to get some from? Not really after flash stuff cos i don't use it that much. Ta

Hey Phileas

That sucks.... Getting a set of hubs has been hard enough in NZ, but just 2 hubs could be tough... I'm guessing you are running with stock Airdeck plastic hubs, what size tires you running...? 8" or 9 inch...?

I can split a set of MBS rockstars for ya if you want, they should work with standard 8" tires and bearings... $40 + shipping from CHCH. Drop me an email through my website below...
